    My neighbor kidnapped and abused my chickens-seriously

    Sorry that you had to go through that! People amaze me-we live on over 5 acres with a creek which makes it attractive for people to TRESPASS!!!! Anyway, God has a great way of giving me an inkling to step outside every once and a while to check things out. I go outside (this was when my...

    White Stuff-What is this? Let's eat it and find out-

    All of mine are still holed up in the coop! It's been 4 days now and they are fine right where they are I guess. I wondered if the snow would be bad for them if they ate too much, I know we aren't supposed to eat snow (especially yellow snow ) but melt it before we do so as not to get...

    What you don't want to wake up and see in your chicken pen!

    Quote: I do have 2x4 but it got in through the chicken wire that covers the top. Not sure what kind of hawk, but today we had to huge redtail hawks scouting it out. UGGGH! I didn't kill the hawk, but it was a very long debate if I would or not. I actually opened the door to chase it out...

    Quote: I just read your page and I can see why you said Slurpy! Sorry for your loss of Speckles, but it sounds and looks like she gave you much joy. Chickens are certainly more human than we know.

    LOL They do seem to have a sweet tooth! I just figured it would be way too cold for them, but they seem to enjoy it.

    Wow! Walk away for a minute and 20 people are on here. LOL Unfortunately-I lost my Bantam Roo that day. I lost the hen just 3 days prior when they were free ranging. Dang hawk did it right in front of me!!! The pen was between me and it, should have been carrying my gun with me but I was in...

    I accidentally bought some eggs! Oops!!

    When one of my hens was broody I made sure she was unable to get to the computer. I just knew I would have a batch on the way if I didn't keep her out of the office! She wanted them bad-she was broody for 2 months on and off! Maybe I will let her sit with me soon and she can decide what she...

    Would a hawk kill a full size chicken?

    OH my yes! I posted pictures of one in my pen! It isn't very big, but it got both my bantams. Today we saw 2 hawks out hunting-redtails- they were huge! Large enough they could carry one of my Orpington roos off if they wanted. Darn Predators!!! Now, when I want my flock to free range I...

    Okay-Finally able to post a couple picks of my Blue Marans Roo- Blue Boy What do you think? To me he is very handsome and a southern gentleman to boot! He is very considerate of his ladies. He lets them eat before him. He calls when the treats come. He is very gentle in the romance...

    White Stuff-What is this? Let's eat it and find out-

    What do chickens do that have never seen snow? Well they taste it first! Buffy and Ms. P'Cock were not willing to set foot outside into the snow, but they at least decided to taste test it. Then Ms. P'Cock decided she liked it better than her water!! They still haven't come out of their...
